Hi Thomas,

First of all many thanks for using Monitorix.

You can't do this if you want Monitorix be physically installed in the 
/var/www/admin directory, and as long as the .deb file installs 
Monitorix in the /usr/share/monitorix directory you'll have no way to 
change it during installation.

But, you could change manually its location after the installation if 
you take care to change some settings in the main configuration file, 
and in the Apache configuration file provided by the .deb package.

I mean you could do:

# mv /usr/share/monitorix /var/www/admin/monitorix

in /etc/monitorix.conf define:
our $BASE_DIR = "/var/www/admin/monitorix/";
our $BASE_URL = "/admin/monitorix";
our $BASE_CGI = "/admin/monitorix-cgi";

in /etc/apache2/conf.d/monitorix.conf define:
Alias /admin/monitorix /var/www/admin/monitorix
ScriptAlias /admin/monitorix-cgi /var/www/admin/monitorix/cgi-bin

<Directory /var/www/admin/monitorix/cgi-bin/>

Then restart Monitorix and all should work.

The only problem with this manual change is that you'll need to repeat 
it on every Monitorix update.

Let me know if that helped you.
Best regards.
